Film Promotion Item Toys With Press

Let’s hope Disney’s merchandising folks come up with a better idea for the annual pass holder’s gift than they have for merchandise to promote the company’s upcoming movie “101 Dalmatians.”

The latest item to hit the park shelves is Wettin’ Wizzer, a $42 faux Dalmatian puppy that drinks water from its bowl, then amazes and delights your child by relieving himself on a newspaper.

The toy may reflect Disney’s attitude toward the press, but it’s difficult to fathom how doggy toilet humor will “enhance the guest experience,” as park officials are so fond of saying.
